INTRODUCTION
ECONOMIC CENSUSES OVER TIME
The early beginnings of America's industrial output were
first measured in the United States in the 1810 Decen-
nial Census and again in 1820, when questions on
manufacturing were included with those for population.
Beginning with the 1840 Decennial Census, there were
enumerations of manufactures and mineral industries at
10-year intervals up to and including the year 1900 for
manufactures and 1 940 for mineral industries. The latter
census/was again taken for 1 954, 1 958, 1 963, and 1 967.
Because of the increasing dominance of manufacturing
in the early 20th century, Congress directed that quin-
quennial censuses of manufactures be taken beginning in
1905. However, from 1919 through 1939, these cen-
suses were conducted every 2 years. The need for war-
related current surveys in the early 1 940's postponed the
next census of manufactures until 1 948 (for 1 947). That
census was again taken for 1 954, 1 958, 1 963, and 1 967.
Retail and wholesale trade data were first collected in
1930, and in 1933 information on selected service in-
dustries was added to the data-collection operation. These
business censuses, as they were called, were again taken
for 1 935, 1 939 (as part of the 1 940 decennial program),
1948, 1954, 1958, 1963, and 1967.
Information on construction industries was first
obtained in 1 930 and again for 1 935 and 1 939. Data for
the full spectrum of construction industries were not
gathered again until 1968 (for 1967).
The need for transportation data to supplement infor-
mation available from existing governmental or private
sources was recognized by Congress in the late 1950's
and early 1 960's. The census of transportation (consisting
of several surveys) was first taken for 1 963 and again for
1967.
Since 1 967, all of the above censuses have been taken
quinquennially as part of the Census Bureau's economic
census program. (For the 1977 censuses, the coverage
of the service industries was broadened from "selected
services" to all services, except religious organizations
and private households. A total of 41 additional four-digit
standard industrial classifications1 (SIC's) in 7 SIC major
groups was added to the scope of the census. While most
of the industries included for the first time for 1 977 were
covered again for 1982, some were not, i.e., hospitals;
elementary and secondary schools; colleges, universities,
and professional schools; junior colleges and technical in-
stitutes; labor unions and similar labor organizations; and
political organizations.)
The first manufacturing census for an outlying area was
conducted in Puerto Rico for the year 1909. Thereafter,

with the exception of 1929, a census was taken at
10-year intervals through 1949. The first censuses of
retail trade, wholesale trade, and selected service in-
dustries in Puerto Rico were conducted in 1939. These
censuses also were taken for the years 1949, 1954,
1958, 1963, and 1967. A census of construction in-
dustries was first introduced in Puerto Rico for 1967.
These censuses of Puerto Rico have been taken since then
for the years 1972, 1977, and 1982.
Censuses of manufactures, retail trade, wholesale
trade, and selected service industries were conducted in
Guam and the Virgin Islands of the United States for 1 958,
1 963, 1 967, 1 972, 1 977, and 1 982. Censuses of mineral
industries were taken in the Virgin Islands of the United
States for the years 1 958, 1 963, and 1 967 but not since
that time. A census of construction industries was also
undertaken in these areas for 1972, 1977, and 1982.
Retail trade, wholesale trade, selected service in-
dustries, manufacturing, and construction industries were
canvassed for the first time in the Northern Mariana
Islands in 1983 (for 1982).
For 1982, the economic censuses and agriculture cen-
suses were conducted concurrently.
USES OF THE ECONOMIC CENSUSES
The economic censuses are the major source of facts
about the structure and functioning of the Nation's
economy and provide essential information for govern-
ment, business, industry, and the general public. They
provide an important part of the framework for such
composite measures as the gross national product, input-
output measures, indexes of industrial production, and
indexes measuring productivity and price levels. Informa-
tion from the censuses is used to establish sampling
frames and as benchmarks for current surveys of business
activity, which are essential for measuring short-term
economic conditions.
State and local governments use census data to assess
business activities within their jurisdictions. The private
sector uses the data to forecast general economic condi-
tions; analyze sales performance; lay out sales territories;
allocate funds for advertising; decide on locations for new
plants, warehouses, or stores; and measure potential
markets in terms of size, geographic areas, kinds of
business, and kinds of products made or sold.
Following every census, thousands of businesses and
other users purchase reports. Likewise, census facts are
widely disseminated by trade associations, business
journals, and newspapers. Volumes containing census
statistics are available to most major public and college
libraries. All 1982 data are available on microfiche from
the U.S. Government Printing Office and most data on
computer tape from the Census Bureau. Finally, the more
than 50 State Data Centers also are suppliers of economic
census statistics.

INTRODUCTION III
AUTHORITY AND SCOPE OF THE ECONOMIC
CENSUSES
The economic censuses are required by law under title
13 of the United States Code, sections 131, 191, and
224, which directs that they be taken at 5-year intervals
for the years ending in 2 and 7. The 1 982 Economic Cen-
suses covered manufacturing, mining, construction in-
dustries, retail trade, wholesale trade, service industries,
and selected transportation activities. Special programs
also cover minority-owned and women-owned
businesses. The next economic censuses are scheduled
to be taken in 1988 for the year 1987.
CENSUS OF WHOLESALE TRADE
The 1 982 Census of Wholesale Trade, part of the 1 982
Economic Censuses, covered wholesale trade as defined
in the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) Manual.1 It
included all establishments with one or more paid
employees primarily engaged in selling merchandise to
retailers; to industrial, commercial, institutional, farm, or
professional users; or to other wholesalers. Companies
selling products to which they have title, as well as those
acting as agents or brokers in buying merchandise for or
selling merchandise to others, are included. The census
excluded governmental organizations classified in the
covered industries except for wholesale liquor establish-
ments operated by State and local governments. The basic
tabulations in this report do not include data for establish-
ments which are "auxiliary" (primary function is providing
a service, such as warehouses) to wholesale establish-
ments within the same organization. Data for auxiliaries
are presented for selected industrial classifications in
tables included in the United States Summary report
issued as part of this series. Data for auxiliaries will be
presented for more detailed industry breakdowns in a
subsequent report issued as part of the 1 982 Enterprise
Statistics reports.
Wholesale firms without employees were excluded from
the census. In the census of retail trade, the sales of firms
with no paid employees are derived from administrative
records of other Federal agencies rather than from a direct
canvass. These sources proved impractical for wholesale
firms without paid employees. In the census of wholesale
trade, the sales value is the gross volume of business con-
ducted. Firms which operate wholly or partly on a com-
mission basis must provide both the gross volume of
business conducted and commission receipts on census
forms. Agents and brokers do not report to other Federal
agencies the gross selling value of goods. Moreover, ad-
ministrative records make no distinction between commis-
sion receipts and sales receipts by wholesalers.
Appendix A gives a more detailed explanation of cen-
sus coverage and methodology.
CENSUS DISCLOSURE RULES
In accordance with Federal law governing census
reports, no data are published that would disclose thei
operations of an individual establishment or business,;
However, the number of establishments in a kind-of
business classification is not considered a disclosure, so
this information may be released even though other in-i
formation is withheld.
GEOGRAPHIC AREAS COVERED
This report series presents data for the following areas:
1 . The United States as a whole.
2. Each State and the District of Columbia.
3. Each standard consolidated statistical area
(SCSA) defined by the Office of Management and
Budget as of January 1 , 1 982, meeting the criteria
published in the 1975 Standard Metropolitan
Statistical Areas manual or Federal Register,
January 3, 1980, Vol. 45, No. 2.2 3 An SCSA is an
area used to facilitate the presentation and analysis
of data for large concentrations of metropolitan
populations. It includes two or more contiguous
standard metropolitan statistical areas which have
a population of at least 1 ,000,0004 and which meet
specific criteria of urban character and of social and
economic integration.
4. Each standard metropolitan statistical area
(SMSA) defined by the Office of Management and
Budget as of January 1, 1982, meeting the criteria
published in the 1975 Standard Metropolitan
Statistical Areas manual or Federal Register,
January 3, 1 980, Vol. 45, No. 2.2 3 An SMSA is an
integrated economic and social unit with a popula-
tion nucleus of at least 50,000 inhabitants.4 Each
SMSA consists of one or more counties meeting
standards of metropolitan character; in New
England, cities and towns rather than counties are
the component geographic units.
5. The area within the State outside standard
metropolitan statistical areas.

30n June 30, 1983, the Office of Management and Budget an-
nounced newly defined metropolitan statistical areas (MSA's), con-
solidated metropolitan statistical areas (CMSA's), and primary
metropolitan statistical areas (PMSA's) into which previously
defined SMSA's and SCSA's were restructured. The 1982 Economic
Censuses publications do not present data for the newly defined areas.
These areas were defined after 1 982 publication plans were almost com-
plete. Inclusion of the newly defined areas would have materially delayed
the publication of the 1 982 Economic Censuses reports. However, limited
1977 data for the new areas will be published in the 1984 edition of
the State and Metropolitan Area Data Book, and limited 1 982 data will
be published in the 1985 edition.

DOLLAR VALUES
All dollar values presented in this report are expressed
in current dollars, i.e., 1982 data are expressed in 1982
dollars and 1977 data in 1977 dollars. Consequently,
when making comparisons to prior years, users of the data
should consider the inflation that has occurred.
RELIABILITY OF DATA
All data compiled in this report originated from either
census questionnaires or administrative records of other
Federal agencies and, therefore, are not subject to
sampling errors. However, the data are subject to non-
sampling errors. Nonsampling errors can be attributed to
many sources: inability to identify all cases in the actual
universe; definition and classification difficulties; dif-
ferences in the interpretation of questions; errors in
recording or coding the data obtained; and other errors
of collection, response, coverage, and estimation for
missing or misreported data.
The accuracy of these tabulated data is determined by
the joint effects of the various nonsampling errors. No
direct measurement of these effects has been obtained
except for estimation for missing or misreported data;
however, precautionary steps were taken in all phases of
collection, processing, and tabulation of the data in an
effort to minimize the effects of nonsampling errors.
Limited information is obtained from the administrative
records of other Federal agencies. This information is
used in conjunction with other information available to the
Census Bureau to develop estimates for small employers
and other establishments for which responses were not
received in time for publication. For an indication of the
extent that data included in these reports were obtained
from the administrative records of other Federal agencies
and from estimation, rather than reports directly from
respondents, see appendix E. Also, see appendix A for a
more detailed explanation of census coverage and
methodology.
MICROFICHE AND COMPUTER TAPES

SUMMARY OF FINDINGS
Data from the 1 982 Census of Wholesale Trade show
that Nevada's 1 ,233 wholesale establishments had sales
totaling $3.9 billion. In 1977, 995 wholesalers had sales
of $1.7 billion.
Among the three major wholesale types of operation,
merchant wholesalers had the largest share, with 1 ,073
establishments and sales of $2.6 billion; followed by
manufacturers' sales branches and offices, with 106
establishments and sales of $1.2 billion; and agents,
brokers, and commission merchants, with 54
establishments and sales of $111 million.
The 1982 payroll of all wholesalers in the State
amounted to $252 million, compared to $127 million for
1 977. Payroll per employee averaged $ 1 8.3 thousand for
all wholesalers; $18.4 thousand for merchant
wholesalers; $19.3 thousand for manufacturers' sales
branches and offices; and $11.4 thousand for agents,
brokers, and commission merchants.
There were 1 3,750 paid employees (full- and part-time)
engaged in wholesale trade in the State as of mid-March
1 982. Merchant wholesalers were the largest employers,
with 1 1 ,892 employees; followed by manufacturers' sales
branches and offices, with 1 ,41 5 employees; and agents,
brokers, and commission merchants, with 443
employees.
Sales by petroleum and petroleum products wholesalers
in 1982 accounted for 19.8 percent of the State's total
sales by all wholesalers, compared to 16.5 percent in
1977. Other leading wholesale kind-of-business groups
in 1 982 were groceries and related products wholesalers,
with 15.6 percent; machinery equipment and supplies
wholesalers, with 12.3 percent; beer, wine and distilled
alcoholic beverages wholesalers, with 6.4 percent; and
motor vehicles and automotive parts and supplies
wholesalers, with 6.4 percent.
For 1982, sales for all wholesalers in the State aver-
aged $3.1 million per establishment. Petroleum and
petroleum products wholesalers averaged $13.5 million
per establishment; beer, wine and distilled alcoholic
beverages wholesalers, $8.5 million; groceries and related
products wholesalers, $4.5 million; metals and minerals
except petroleum wholesalers, $3.7 million; and drugs,
drug proprietaries and druggists' sundries wholesalers,
$3.5 million.
In 1982, sales per employee for all wholesalers in the
State averaged $282 thousand. Petroleum and petroleum
products wholesalers reported sales per employee of $1 .5
million, which contrasts sharply with the $124 thou-
sand recorded by chemicals and allied products

WHOLESALE TRADE-GEOGRAPHIC AREA SERIES
APPENDIX A.
General Explanation
:ensus coverage and methodology
Structure and method of enumeration — All wholesale
:irms that had at least one quarter of payroll in 1982
A/ere included in the census of wholesale trade and were
nailed either a regular census form or a short classifica-
tion form. The coverage and the method of obtaining
census information from each follow:
1. Large companies, i.e., all multiunit firms and all
single-unit firms above the payroll size cutoff
established to separate large from small employers,
and a 10-percent sample of the small employers
were mailed the appropriate 1982 Census of
Distributive Trades establishment report forms.
Although the payroll cutoff varied by kind of
business, small employers generally included firms
with one to three employees and represented about
10 percent of total wholesale sales. For the large
companies, a report of company organization is
conducted periodically to identify firms which
operated establishments at more than one location
and to obtain information on payroll and mid-March
employment at each location. The 1981 Report of
Company Organization was used as a coverage
check in the census. In the census mailing package
containing the appropriate 1982 questionnaries,
multiestablishment firms also were sent a form to
use in updating the list of establishments with
those opened since 1981.
2. Small companies other than those included in the
10-percent sample described above were mailed
the classification forms, which did not include
questions on payroll, employment, and sales by
commodity lines. Data on payroll and employment
for these firms were derived or estimated from ad-
ministrative records of other Federal agencies.
Method of classifying kinds of business — Establish-
ments receiving the regular census forms were classified
on the basis of their answers to questions on sales by
commodity lines and other inquiries. Those that received
classification forms were classified on the basis of their
self-designation and answers to other inquiries.
COMPARABILITY OF THE 1977 AND 1982
CENSUSES
The 1977 and 1982 censuses were conducted under
similar conditions and procedures except for the
following:
Geographic areas — The boundaries of a number of
areas for which data are shown in the 1982 census are
not the same as in the 1977 census because of annexa-
tions, other boundary changes, redefinitions of SMSA's,
and changes in qualifying criteria since 1977.
In 1977, separate data were published for certain
census-defined unincorporated places with 25,000
inhabitants or more. For 1982, data for census-defined
unincorporated places are no longer shown separately
but are included as part of the "remainder of county"
statistics. In addition, improved methods, used in the
1982 census for determining the proper geographic
areas into which businesses are tabulated within a given
county, resulted in a number of businesses that were not
tabulated as part of the "remainder of county" statistics
in previous censuses being included within the "re-
mainder of county" for 1982.
In 1977, special economic urban areas (see
Geographic Areas Covered in introductory text) in New
England qualified for separate publication if they had an
urban population of at least 2,500 and a total population
of at least 10,000. For 1982, the urban population re-
quirement has been eliminated, and the area must have a
population of 10,000 to qualify for separate publication.
Standard Industrial Classification — In both 1982 and
1 977, classifications are based on the 1 972 Standard In-
dustrial Classification (SIC) Manual1 and on a supplement
issued in 1977 showing minor revisions and clarifica-
tions to the SIC structure. As a result of a later clarifica-
tion in 1982 by the SIC committee, the sale of crude oil
from bulk storage facilities has been classified in
petroleum bulk stations and terminals (5171) rather than
petroleum and petroleum products (5172) as it was in
1977 and all previous censuses.
Payroll and employment — The 1977 employment item
included three pay-period statistics omitted from the
1982 inquiry: the number of paid employees for the pay
period including the 12th of May, August, and
November. These statistics are collected and published
by the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
Inventories — In 1982, inventories were reported at
cost or market using generally accepted accounting
methods. Inventories calculated on a last-in-first-out
(LIFO) basis were reported before the LIFO adjustment.
In 1977, inventories were reported by valuation method
and summed to a total for each establishment; in prior
censuses, all inventories were reported at cost. Method
of valuation data are collected in the Annual Trade
Survey.
EXPLANATION OF TERMS
Establishments — An establishment is a single physical
location at which business is conducted. It is not
necessarily identical with a company or enterprise,

WHOLESALE TRADE-GEOGRAPHIC AREA SERIES
APPENDIX A A-1
which may consist of one establishment or more. Census
of wholesale trade figures represent a summary of
reports for individual establishments rather than com-
panies. For cases where a census report was received,
separate information was obtained for each location
where business was conducted. When administrative
records of other Federal agencies were used instead of a
census report, no information was available on the
number of locations operated. Estimates of this number
were derived from a sample and will be provided in the
Miscellaneous Subjects report (WC82-I-4). Each census
report was tabulated according to the physical location
at which the business was conducted. The count of
establishments in this publication represents the number
in business at the end of the year.
A comparison of the number of establishments in
business at the end of the year versus the number active
any time during the year for the United States as a whole
is presented by kind-of-business group in appendix G of
the United States Summary report included as part of
this series.
When two activities or more were carried on at a single
location under a single ownership, all activities generally
were grouped together as a single establishment. The en-
tire establishment was classified on the basis of its major
activity and all data for it were included in that classifica-
tion. However, when distinct and separate economic ac-
tivities (for which different industry classification codes
were appropriate) were conducted under the same
ownership at a single location, and when conditions
prescribed by the SIC manual for recognizing the ex-
istence of more than one establishment were met,
separate establishment reports for each of the different
activities were obtained in the census.
Firms— A firm is a business organization or entity con-
sisting of one domestic establishment (location) or more
under common ownership or control. For economic cen-
sus purposes, the terms "firm" and "company" are
synonymous.
Sales — Sales include merchandise sold for cash or
credit at wholesale and retail by establishments primarily
engaged in wholesale trade; receipts from rental or leas-
ing of vehicles, equipment, instruments, tools, etc.;
receipts for delivery, installation, maintenance, repair,
alteration, storage, and other services; and gasoline,
liquor, tobacco, and other excise taxes which are paid
by the manufacturer and passed on to the wholesaler.
Sales are net after deductions for refunds and
allowances for merchandise returned by customers.
Trade-in allowances are not deducted from total sales.
Total sales do not include carrying or other credit
charges; sales (or other) taxes collected from customers
and forwarded to taxing authorities; and non-operating
income from such sources as investments, rental or sale
of real estate, etc.
Sales in this report do not include wholesale sales
made by manufacturers, retailers, service estab-
lishments, or other businesses whose primary activity is
other than wholesale trade. They do include receipts
other than from the sales of merchandise at wholesale,
e.g., service receipts, retail sales, etc., by
establishments primarily engaged in wholesale trade.
Although the count of establishments represents the
number in business at the end of the year, the sales
figures include sales of all establishments in business at
any time during the year. Sales shown for agents and
brokers represent the value of the goods involved in the
transactions rather than the commissions received or
earnings.
Annual payroll — Payroll includes all forms of compen-
sation such as salaries, wages, commissions, bonuses,
vacation allowance, sick-leave pay, and the value of
payments in kind (e.g., free meals and lodgings), paid
during the year to all employees. For corporations, it
includes amounts paid to officers and executives; for
unincorporated businesses, it does not include profit or
other compensation of proprietors or partners. Payroll is
reported before deductions for social security, income
tax, insurance, union dues, etc. This definition of payroll
is the same as that used by the Internal Revenue Service j
on form 941 .
First quarter payroll — This item consists of payroll, as
defined above, paid to persons employed at any time dur-
ing the quarter January to March 1982.
Paid employees for pay period including March
12 — Paid employees consist of the full-time and part-
time employees, including salaried officers and ex-
ecutives of corporations, who were on the payroll in the
pay period including March 12. Included are employees
on paid sick leave, paid holidays, and paid vacations; not
included are proprietors and partners of unincorporated
businesses. The definition of paid employees is the same
as that used on IRS form 941 .
1982 and 1981 inventories — Inventories consist of
stocks of merchandise for sale at the end of 1982 and
1 981 . They are reported on an ownership basis; all mer-
chandise owned by reporting establishments is included,
even though some may be held by others for sale on con-
signment. Goods held by the reporting establishment,
but owned by others, are not included. Data for 1982
and 1981 inventories LIFO composition will be published
in the 1982 Census of Wholesale Trade Miscellaneous
Subjects report (WC82-I-4).
Operating expenses — Operating expenses include
payroll as well as overhead expenses of the establish-
ment. They do not include the cost of goods sold or in-
come or excise taxes. Nor do they include withdrawals
by proprietors or partners of unincorporated businesses.
Auxiliary establishments — Each company included in
the census was asked to identify and report separately
those auxiliary locations whose primary functions were
to manage, administer, service, or support the activities
of the other establishments of the company. Data for
auxiliaries which primarily service wholesale
establishments are presented for selected industrial
classifications in tables included in the United States
Summary report. Data for auxiliaries are presented for
more detailed industry breakdowns in a subsequent
report issued as part of the 1982 Enterprise Statistics
reports.
A-2 APPENDIX A
WHOLESALE TRADE-GEOGRAPHIC AREA SERIES
KIND-OF-BUSINESS CLASSIFICATIONS
Wholesale trade, major groups 50 and 51 in the 1 972
%SIC manual, includes establishments primarily engaged
(fin selling merchandise to retailers; to industrial, commer-
cial, institutional, farm, or professional business users; or
to other wholesalers; or acting as agents or brokers in
buying merchandise for or selling merchandise to such
persons or companies.
The principal types of establishments included are:
1. Merchant wholesalers who take title to the goods
they sell, such as wholesale merchants or jobbers,
industrial distributors, voluntary group wholesalers,
drop shippers, retailer cooperative warehouses, ter-
minal elevators, and cooperative buying associa-
tions.
2. Manufacturers' sales branches and sales offices
(but not retail stores) maintained by manufacturing
or mining enterprises apart from their plants or
mines for the purpose of marketing their products.
3. Agents, brokers, and commission merchants who
buy or sell products owned by others on a commis-
sion or agency basis.
Establishments primarily engaged in the wholesale
distribution of used products are classified on the basis
of the product sold.
Establishments primarily engaged in selling merchan-
dise to contractors are included in wholesale trade, with
the exception of lumber yards and paint, glass, and
wallpaper stores. These exceptions are classified in retail
trade if they sell to the general public, even if a higher
proportion of their sales is made to contractors.
Establishments covered by the census were assigned a
kind-of-business classification according to the industry
classifications defined in the 1972 SIC Manual. When a
more detailed classification was needed than that de-
fined in the SIC Manual, more kinds of business were
identified within a SIC.
Kind-of-business classifications are not inter-
changeable with commodity classifications, because
most businesses sell several kinds of commodities. The
kind-of-business code assigned generally reflects either
the individual commodity or the commodity group which
is the primary source of the establishment's receipts, or
some mixture of commodities which characterizes the
establishment's business. Thus, the classification of
establishments by kind of business generally does not
make it possible to determine either the number of
establishments handling a particular commodity or the
sales of that commodity. For example, the groceries and
related products classification excludes establishments
selling food if the sale of food is not the primary source of
receipts; moreover, even though establishments are
classified as groceries and related products, some of
their receipts may be derived from the sale of nonfood
products. Information on the extent to which com-
modities are handled by different kinds of business is
available in the 1982 Census of Wholesale Trade report,
Commodity Line Sales (WC82-I-3).

WHOLESALE TRADE-GEOGRAPHIC AREA SERIES
TYPE-OF-OPERATION CLASSIFICATIONS
In addition to being classified by kind of business, each
wholesale establishment was classified for the census by
type of operation according to the ownership of the
business, ownership of the goods sold, or character of
the principal transactions. Establishments in wholesale
trade are grouped into the following three major types of
operation and related subgroups:
Merchant wholesalers — Establishments primarily
engaged in buying and selling merchandise on their own
account. Included here are such types of establishments
as wholesale merchants or jobbers, industrial
distributors, voluntary group wholesalers, importers, ex-
porters, cash-and-carry wholesalers, retailer cooperative
warehouses, terminal and country grain elevators, farm
products assemblers, wholesale cooperative associa-
tions, and petroleum bulk plants and terminals operated
by nonrefining companies.
Wholesale distributors and jobbers — Estab-
lishments primarily engaged in buying and
selling merchandise in the domestic market
and performing the principal wholesale func-
tions of buying, stocking, selling, etc.
Importers — Establishments buying and selling
goods at wholesale on their own account, whose
principal source of purchases was foreign.
Exporters — Establishments primarily engaged in
purchasing goods in the United States and
selling them to foreign customers.
Terminal grain elevators — Grain elevators primarily
engaged in buying and selling grain received
from country grain elevators and grain market-
ing establishments. They have sizable space
for grain storage, and products are received
primarily by rail or barge rather than by truck.
Country grain elevators — Grain elevators, cooperative
or other, buying and receiving grain directly
from farmers by truck and selling at wholesale.
Assemblers of farm products, except country grain
elevators — Establishments primarily engaged in pur-
chasing directly from farmers and assembling
and marketing farm products at wholesale.
Manufacturers' sales branches and offices-
Establishments maintained by manufacturing, refining,
and mining companies apart from their plants or mines
for marketing their products at wholesale. Branch stores
selling to household consumers and individual users are
classified in retail trade. Sales branches and sales offices
located at plants and at administrative offices are includ-
ed when separate records are available. In some tables,
data are shown separately for manufacturers' sales
branches and for sales offices. These two types of
establishments differ in that sales offices do not carry
stocks of merchandise for delivery to customers.
Agents, brokers, and commission merchants-
Establishments whose operators are in business for
themselves and are primarily engaged in selling or buying
goods for others. Included here are such types of opera-
tions as auction companies, import agents, export
agents, selling agents, merchandise brokers, and com-
mission merchants. "Sales" as shown in census publica-
tions for agents, brokers, and commission merchants
represent the gross sales (or purchase) value of the
goods in the transactions negotiated.
Auction companies — Wholesale establishments pri-
marily engaged in selling merchandise on an
agency basis by auction.
Import agents — Merchandise agents and brokers in
the domestic market buying merchandise from or
selling merchandise for foreign firms.
Export agents — Merchandise agents and brokers in
the domestic market selling to or buying for
foreign customers.
Manufacturers' agents — Wholesale establishments in
the domestic market selling for a limited
number of manufacturers on a continuing agency
basis.
Brokers (representing buyers or sellers) — Wholesale
establishments primarily engaged in selling or
buying merchandise in the domestic market on a
brokerage basis but not receiving the goods on
consignment.
Commission merchants — Wholesale establishments
operating in the domestic market receiving goods for
sale on consignment.
